You might have heard that a lot of home runs were hit in Major League Baseball in 2019.
Something to do with a new kind of ball or something, right?
Well, if you love home runs, you don't care why they were hit, you're just happy that you got to see some of your favorite players, not-so-favorite players and just plain players you've never heard of sock a whole bunch of dingers.
Turns out that in addition to those home runs landing really far from home plate, they landed in the record books, too.
In perusing a couple of leaderboards in the White Sox media guide, you'll find that three of the eight longest home runs hit by White Sox batters in Guaranteed Rate Field history came last season — and they all traveled the exact same number of feet.
